I've been following the switch to "Apple Silicon" far too closely, though admittedly I am trudging along on a late 2011 13" MBP so am looking to upgrade sooner rather than later. The release event was this past Tuesday and orders for the new machines (Mac mini, MBA and 13" MBP) are shipping...

Are you set on the "S" iteration of the X100? With so many in the series there'll be one to fit any budget. They're great cameras, and I've only owned the lowly original one!

I'm still looking forward to it but agree with the other comments about covid. Thomas not going was a bit of a shock but on reflection does make some sense. I used to row a fair bit and there is a rowing phase that the fastest 8 (team of 8 rowers) wins, not the 8 fastest (individual strongest...

A biased view but like George I'm a big fan of the series, currently owing a Mk2 and Mk5. I'm not aware of anything better for your money which gives the same flexibility. I've owed a few of the Fuji X100 series in the past which are fantastic but no where near as flexible given the fixed focal...

I don't follow every post in this thread so apologies if this has already been shared but this is well, shocking but depressingly not that unusual View: https://BANNED/jdpoc/status/1252266724449230848

What do people here make of this article? Could make for interesting reading https://bylinetimes.com/2020/03/31/behind-closed-doors-johnson-and-his-cabinet-do-not-applaud-the-nhs-they-ideologically-oppose-it/

I bought a similar looking Wahl set over 4 years ago and it's exclusively been the way I cut my hair ever since, I've not had negative comments though doesn't mean people aren't thinking them!

Dare I say that if "Jeremy dustbins" announced a £330bn fund the first questions would be of a certain magic money tree Edit: To be clear I'm not saying this spending to support the economy isn't a good thing, quite the opposite in fact.

Maybe we could have this rigour applied for every DailyMail/Murdoch-press article shared :)

Ultimately it depends what you intend to do with the photos. If you're happy simply enjoying them yourself on your phone there's perhaps little need for the stress, if instead you have intentions of making it a serious endeavour then yes I'd recommend it.

I have a 13" Macbook Pro at home, use a very beefy PC at work and yet adore my chromebook: snappy, fantastic battery life, light and has aged really well. It brings me a surprising amount of joy every time I use it. Admittedly it's not a convertible like you're looking at, but I don't think...

I've had a lot of success selling all sorts of things on ebay. Very few timewasters and very rarely does anything go wrong: I've sold upwards of 1000 things on there and recon roughly 99% were completely problem free. Generally my lower limit for what I bother selling myself is around £10 an...

This is getting off-topic but to be clear the issue isn't so much the magnitude of the population which is the problem, it's the lifestyle choices in parts of the world (including many people in the UK) which is unsustainable. To change your closing remark slightly: The choice is either to begin...

I'm sure you already know about it but just in case not: there is an optional Sony grip you can buy which makes a world of difference. I have one on my RX-100 (II) and wouldn't dream of using one of these without it, it would fly straight out of my hand! I've been considering difference options...
